A duck pond where you can sit on a bench and have a look

The young birds are housed in the stables in the spring. Most of the time they are the chicks of the special ducks in the pond (mandarin duck, Caroline duck, scaup, etc.) but also pheasants. Under normal conditions, the birds incubate their own eggs, but some pheasants refuse this service. On the other hand, the young ducklings are eaten by birds of prey, herring gulls and crows when they swim on the pond. Therefore, a replacement hen, given by the citizens of Hollum, takes care of hatching. They are then transferred to the gauze-covered cage until the ducklings are allowed to swim outside after 1 week. This is an attempt to preserve the population of the special ducks.

Wild ducks also cavort on the pond, which have hatched their chicks in the forest all around. Therefore, dogs should be kept on a leash. Almost all chicks are eaten by the above-mentioned birds of prey. The word "deplorable" does not exist in nature, it means eat and be eaten.
